Disabling Nagle's Algorithm in Windows 7

[m00]

Does anyone know how to do this? I have it disabled in XP and it greatly reduces my latency in games. After browsing some windows 7 support forums I havn't found any guides on this ;/ Thanks in advance.

Nagle's algorithm - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Nagle won't do anything for UDP packet games like Tribes. It does make a difference
in TCP traffic. I used it back in the day to get higher rankings on the Usenet top-1000.

According to what i've read, you use the same reg values and procedures for Vista that you did with XP. dunno, i don't use Vista. There was a KB update for vista that fixed some bug that erased the manual dword values after reboot, but that was back in may '08.

What games will actually use TCP? Every one that I know of (at least latency-dependent ones) does UDP. I'm going to guess that the effect was largely placebo...
